Personally, I hope homegirl keeps every cent for herself uses it to get her future started right, but I'm not gonna say what SHOULD happen to that 25k until I take my ass up there and win it myself.

Yeah. She's a kid. Take 15 or 20 grand and invest it in a college fund. Take the rest and play with it. She's a young kid, and won $25000 for a "skill" she has. That's exciting!!! If you walked into a pizza parlor and won $25000 for being their millionth customer, would that be meaningless to you? Would you donate it all to charity, or would you pay your bills off and buy something nice for yourself? Charity is nice, but being a poor white girl, I believe charity starts at home. I have myself, kids, and family who could use a little charity.
